Chapter 770 Zhou Weihan: I am from the Security Command
Forty miles west of Luoyang City, there is a place called Laojing Village. A team of less than sixty people stopped here, all wearing the uniforms of the national army.
The leader wears glasses and has a smile that can be seen at all times. He is accompanied by a young man in his twenties.
Several soldiers responsible for reconnaissance returned one after another: "Chief, the situation ahead has been clearly reconnoitred. It is the same as on the map. According to this place, there is a bifurcated road more than two kilometers away. Both roads can lead to Xijian!"
"About a squad of national troops are stationed at the fork in the road, equipped with a light machine gun. Other than that, nothing else has been discovered!"
After hearing the soldier's report, Zhou Weihan nodded: "The terrain here is good. We are now in the mountains and forests on the south side, adjacent to the highway. Once we succeed, we can retreat to the mountains and forests!"
"Just settle here?"
Zhou Weihan's last words were obviously asking for the brigade commander's opinion. After learning that the First War Zone was going to transport detainees to the Xi'an Concentration Camp, Zhou Weihan and his two men had no intention of entering Luoyang City.
After all, Luoyang is a stronghold of the national army. There are better opportunities, so it is not worth taking the risk at the tiger's mouth.
"Are you sure you want to take action?" the brigade commander suddenly asked.
This question made Zhou Weihan stunned for a moment, and then he fell into deep thought. Apart from him and the brigade commander, there were 65 soldiers accompanying him, including 30 people from the armed workers team, 30 people from the reconnaissance company, 3 security guards, and two comrades from the social work department.
.
The weapons and equipment are mainly submachine guns, Garand rifles, and shell guns, supplemented by 38-guns, light machine guns, and 50-meter cannons.
With the combat effectiveness of the existing soldiers, it is not a problem to eat up an infantry company of the national army in a short period of time, but as the brigade commander just asked, are you sure you want to do it?
Taking action means shooting, which means that the national army may be caught using it to undermine the united front, even though the national army has already destroyed the united front.
"Our Eighth Route Army and the National Army are fighting in cooperation and cooperating in struggle. Our Eighth Route Army has always been the one who takes the initiative to avoid it!"
"But this is the outskirts of Luoyang. Once shots are fired, all the surrounding national troops will send reinforcements to the fighting site. The secret agents know with their buttocks that our Eighth Route Army did it!"
"If it were you, what would you do?" the brigade commander asked again.
"Catch the thief and take the stolen goods, use the topic to your advantage!" Zhou Weihan said.
"Yes, let's do this..."
Not long after, the brigade commander and the guards stayed in the mountains and forests to take command, and two soldiers were responsible for intercepting the flow of people coming from Luoyang. Zhou Weihan and others appeared on the road majestically, and the group lined up and headed two kilometers away.
Go to the fork outside.
The National Army set up checkpoints at crossroads mainly to collect tolls. Merchants traveling from Luoyang to Xi'an had frequent freight convoys. In addition to normal tax payments, there were a lot of tolls along the way. They had to collect them once every time they passed through a National Army defense zone.
.
The checkpoint is right in front of you, and the entire checkpoint is a circular fortification built with sandbags.
Cao Dabao, commander of the reconnaissance company who was walking at the front, looked back at Zhou Weihan. When Zhou Weihan nodded, he immediately trotted forward to negotiate with the soldiers at the checkpoint.
"Sir, Chang Daming, squad leader of the third company of the first battalion of the security regiment, are you from the Political Training Department?"
"Well, what? It doesn't look like it?" Zhou Weihan said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Chang Daming responded hurriedly. Although he had never seen the major officer from the political training office opposite, he looked like the son of a high-ranking official.
As he was talking, the soldiers surrounded more than ten national soldiers in the fortification, and Cao Dabao suddenly pressed his submachine gun against Chang Daming's back.
"Don't move, if you move I'll kill you!"
"Don't move, don't move!" Soldiers holding submachine guns pointed their guns at the national troops inside the fortifications.
This was the outskirts of Luoyang. Normally, this group of Chinese soldiers would only bully passing merchants. Who would have thought that something unexpected happened in front of them? The remaining soldiers entered the fortifications and disarmed a group of Chinese soldiers.
"Sir, what does this mean? Is there any misunderstanding?" Chang Daming raised his hands, and the big beans flowed down his face.
"Misunderstanding? Damn it, your security headquarters confiscated a batch of supplies from our political training department some time ago. Now you're telling me it's a misunderstanding?"
"This was not done by us!"
"Then I'll give you a hard time and tie them up!" Zhou Weihan waved his hand and said.
In the blink of an eye, this group of National Army soldiers were taken into the mountains and forests on the south side, and the checkpoints were replaced by Eighth Route Army soldiers.
On that day, a convoy of three trucks drove out from the west of the city and sped along the road. The first truck was an officer from the Political Training Office of the First Theater Zone, and the remaining trucks were filled with a squad of national officers.
military.
The leading car suddenly stopped when it reached the checkpoint, and the entire convoy suddenly stopped on the road.
"Routine inspection, everyone get out of the car!"
The officer sitting in the passenger seat cursed and got out of the car: "You are so damn blind, don't you know this is a car belonging to the Political Training Department?"
"Political Training Department, we are ordered by the Security Command to check all vehicles coming and going!"
Before the officer could continue to speak, the soldiers swarmed up and pulled the driver of the lead car out.
"I would like to reiterate that by order of the security headquarters, all personnel in the vehicle should get off the vehicle for routine inspection!"
"How can I not know that the security headquarters has issued an order for inspection? Who is your commander? Let him come and see you!" The officer was held up by two soldiers with guns, but he still looked arrogant.
.
Cao Dabao turned around and gave the officer the butt of his gun: "Damn it, you are a special agent of the Political Training Department, what rights do you have to order from our security headquarters?"
As soon as the gun was put down, the officer suddenly became weak, and even the national soldiers who got out of the car for inspection became more honest.
Cao Dabao waved his hand, and the eleven national soldiers were immediately controlled. When the officer saw the situation in front of him, he suddenly felt bad: "Who are you? Who gave you the courage?"
"I am from the Security Command. I suspect you of smuggling supplies, so I will temporarily detain you!" Zhou Weihan, who had been behind the crowd, suddenly said.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Shit, I think you are avenging private revenge, you..." Before the officer could finish his words, he received another rifle butt.
"Comrade, there should be our comrades in the car, along with a batch of in-demand supplies. These people are really smuggling supplies!" Cao Dabao reported in a low voice.
"Take people away!"
"yes!"
In the blink of an eye, the convoy reached a trail extending from the highway, and the brigade commander who was notified also rushed over with his people.
"Comrade Panxi, we are late!" said the brigade commander.
"you are?"
"Chen Geng!"
"Hello, Chief, I have heard of your name!" Li Panxi saluted with a military salute.
"How are the other comrades doing?"
"The secret agents used torture on us. Our comrades are all in poor physical condition. There is also a child. Comrade Zhou is asking people to do a simple bandage!"
"The situation is urgent. I don't know when the national army will discover the abnormality. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. The headquarters still wants you to go to the Taihang Base Area!"
"Yes, we obey the orders of our superiors!" Li Panxi and others thought there was no hope of escaping, but they did not expect to be rescued just after they left Luoyang City. When Zhou Weihan revealed his identity, these comrades still couldn't believe it.
There were people coming and going on the highway. When Zhou Weihan took action just now, Zhou Weihan specially asked people to stop the flow of people in two directions, but there was no guarantee that someone would find the problem.
Without much delay, the brigade commander ordered the martial arts team of the Taiyue Military Region to escort six comrades from the Eighth Luo Office to the north.
After the armed workers team left, the brigade commander didn't see Zhou Weihan still tinkering on the truck, so he stepped forward and asked, "What's in the truck?"
"They are all valuable items, mostly for women. Perfume, cosmetics, clothes, shoes. It seems that they are all prepared for the noble lady of the West Bank. They are worth a lot of money!"
When Zhou Weihan mentioned the money, the brigade commander's eyes suddenly lit up: "What do you have in your hand?"
"Nylon stockings, authentic American products, worn by women, pulled up to the thighs!" Zhou Weihan also did not expect to see such things as stockings in this era.
Women like stockings, and men are even more obsessed with them. It can be said that both men and women kill each other.
"It seems that the owner of this batch of goods has a good background. You can still get American goods these days!" said the brigade commander.
After Zhou Weihan saw this batch of goods, he also realized this problem, so he sent Cao Dabao to interrogate the officers of the Political Training Department.
Of these three trucks, the first one carried Nationalist soldiers and comrades from the Luobao Office. The remaining two trucks were mainly filled with valuables, and the rest were barrels of gasoline.
"Commander **, please clarify. This batch of goods came from Shanghai. The owner of the goods is Hu Zongnan's wife. This is a pass issued by the Luoyang Police Headquarters!" Cao Dabaohui reported.
"This Mrs. Hu is indeed a noble lady with great powers. She is actually capable of transporting this batch of goods from Hudu to Luoyang?" Zhou Weihan said sarcastically.
Zhou Weihan didn't know the value of this batch of in-demand supplies, but he was afraid it would have doubled several times after arriving in Xijian.
"Hmph, this old classmate of mine has a wife. Since she was brought to my door, is there any reason not to reject her?"
"We are going to take a detour to the west anyway, so let's take this batch of scarce supplies with us. I want to see how much these things are worth!" the brigade commander said in a deep voice.
Zhou Weihan smiled inwardly after hearing this. The brigade commander's style has never changed. There is no reason to put down something that reaches his mouth.
"Brigade Commander, I have asked people to make it clear. The national troops at the checkpoints rotate their posts every week. Today is the second day. The usual food is usually provided by Laojing Village. If we don't go to the peak to check, there will be no food in a short time.
Exposed!"
"I left ten soldiers at the checkpoint. The distance from Luoyang to Xijian is less than 400 kilometers. We drive in a truck and have passes. Five days is not enough for us to reach the vicinity of Xijian!" Zhou Weihan said.
"Let's do it!" The brigade commander was also a bold man and directly agreed with Zhou Weihan's idea.
After a good discussion, in addition to Zhou Weihan, the brigade commander, three guards, two guides, and twenty soldiers from the reconnaissance company, the people who needed to set off were 27 people in total.
Three reconnaissance company soldiers who are proficient in driving skills are responsible for driving, and the rest are crowded into three trucks. The checkpoints and the convoy are all detained in the mountains and forests by national troops.
A few days after the convoy left, the security chief of Laojing Village continued to lead the villagers to supply food to the checkpoint. When he saw that the checkpoint suddenly changed people, the soldiers of the reconnaissance company excused him on the grounds of a change of defense.
It was not until the fourth day after Zhou Weihan and others set out that the first guard group sent someone to collect tolls, only to find that the person at the checkpoint had been changed, but the person who came was detained by soldiers from the reconnaissance company.
In the early morning of the fifth day, all ten soldiers of the reconnaissance company withdrew. During the day, the security guard of Laojing Village discovered this abnormal situation. After reporting it, the first guard group learned that something had happened to the checkpoint.
At this time, Zhou Weihan and others had arrived at the junction of southern Shaanxi and northern Shaanxi.
"Trash, everything is trash. Think about it with your pig brain. Will the people from the garrison headquarters tell you your identity openly?" Yu Tianming, director of the Political Training Department of the First War Zone, said angrily.
The officer also reacted at this time: "Sir, it must be the Eighth Route Army! They just want to kidnap those who are sent to the concentration camps!"
"Nonsense, didn't I know it was the Eighth Route Army? In the suburbs of Luoyang, the Eighth Route Army was allowed to come and go at will, and the garrison headquarters must bear the main responsibility!" Yu Tianming said with a gloomy face.
After the traitor Yuan Xiaoxuan was identified, Yu Tianming learned that most of the six people were confidential personnel and telegraph operators in the office, and were in charge of the secrets of communication.
Although no information was obtained from the torture, he could be sent to the Tianshui camp to ask for merit. Unexpectedly, he was rescued by the Eighth Route Army just after leaving Luoyang City.
Everyone in the Political Training Department or the Security Headquarters knew that the Eighth Route Army was responsible for this incident, but they all wanted to shift the responsibility to the other party.
The station of Luoyang Station.
Song Xiaoan came to Zheng Yaoxian with excitement on his face: "Brother Six, there is a big fuss. Yu Tianming's people just escorted the Communists out of the city, but they lost them at the Laojing Village checkpoint!"
"The Security Headquarters and the Political Training Division have taken the case to the senior officer's office. Each side said it was the other's responsibility. This is a huge loss of face!"
When Zheng Yaoxian heard this, there was no gloating on his face. Instead, he asked, "Do you know where the Eighth Route Army went?"
"No trace of the truck was found near Laojing Village. It was obviously driven away by the Eighth Route Army. It seemed to be heading west, but it was discovered too late. Yu Tianming only found out after greeting various garrison troops along the way.
I have arrived in Xijian a long time ago, I don’t know where I am hiding now!”
"Huh, even eating shit can't keep up with the heat!" Zheng Yaoxian felt relieved a little.
The words were divided into two parts. Before the soldiers of the reconnaissance company at the checkpoint withdrew, they sent a telegram to Zhou Weihan. At that time, Zhou Weihan and others had just arrived in Xi'an.
"There are more national soldiers nearby. Apparently they have received the news. It is not easy to get here. Let's put our things here first!" Zhou Weihan said.
"It's a pity. It would be great if we could drive the truck directly to the base area. It would be too troublesome to go back and forth. Everyone should pack up and leave. Next time it won't be us!" The brigade commander said with a bit of reluctance.
The vehicle stopped in front of an abandoned cave dwelling. The soldiers transported the supplies inside and then drove the truck to another place.
